### createEventHub
|
||
|
||
Creates a pub/sub ([publish–subscribe](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Publish%E2%80%93subscribe_pattern)) event hub with `emit`, `on`, and `off` methods.
|
||
|
||
For `emit`, resolve the array of handlers based on the `event` argument and then run
|
||
each one with `Array.forEach()` by passing in the data as an argument.
|
||
|
||
For `on`, create an array for the event if it does not yet exist, then use `Array.push()` to add the handler
|
||
to the array.
|
||
|
||
For `off`, use `Array.findIndex()` to find the index of the handler in the event array and remove it using `Array.splice()`.
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
const createEventHub = () => ({
|
||
hub: {},
|
||
emit(event, data) {
|
||
(this.hub[event] || []).forEach(handler => handler(data));
|
||
},
|
||
on(event, handler) {
|
||
if (!this.hub[event]) this.hub[event] = [];
|
||
this.hub[event].push(handler);
|
||
},
|
||
off(event, handler) {
|
||
const i = (this.hub[event] || []).findIndex(h => h === handler);
|
||
if (i > -1) this.hub[event].splice(i, 1);
|
||
}
|
||
});
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
const hub = createEventHub();
|
||
const fn = data => console.log(data);
|
||
hub.on('message', fn); // subscribe a handler to listen for 'message' events
|
||
hub.emit('message', 'hello!'); // console logs 'hello!'
|
||
hub.off('message', fn); // unsubscribe our handler from 'message'
|
||
```
